    • Residence: 1860, Red Creek, Wayne, New York, USA
    • Residence: 1870, Red Creek, Wayne, New York, USA

    Notes:

    In 1850, 1860 and 1870 census there is a Jeanette, Gennett, Jannet Wetherby in the household born 1840

    In the 1810 Federal census for Cayuga County there is 1 female child in the household of John Wetherby in the age range of Sophia. In the War of 1812 pension record of Simeon Phelps, two people state that they were present at the wedding of Simeon and Sophia which was held in the John Wetherby household in Brutus. One of those two furthur states that John Wetherby is the father of Sophia.

    On Simeon Phelps probate filed in 1859, Sophia is administrator. Her mark is witnessed by David Wetherby and L.?. Wetherby. Also the inventory appraisers are Wm? Wood and Lyman Wetherby. Figuring that all of those Wetherby's are related to her. David Wetherby was b. 1820. Lyman Wetherby, his brother was b. 1804. They are children of John Wetherby b. 1778/Eunice Unknown.

    It appears that John1778's first child was b. 1799, with some trees showing unknown child b. 1796. I have not found a source for the unknown child. (apparently from the age range of children on the 1810 census)

    John1778/Eunice Unknown have a grandchild b. 1837 son of John named John Cutting Wetherby. (The Phelps book says Sophia was a daughter of Unknown Wetherby and Emma Cutting.)

    John1778's parents were John Wetherby1745/Mary Newton.

    John1745 had a child 1794 with Martha Sawtell (possibly his last child), a second marriage.

    I could not find any probate records in Cayuga County for John Wetherby.

    Cannot find her in the 1855 New York Census. It appears that Wayne County was not covered, although Cayuga was.

    The 1850 census has Jannett Wetherby b. 1840 living in the household. Unable to place her. Also Almira/Elmira Williams b. 1848 in the household, who apparently is the child of David Williams (b. 1812 in Galen, Wayne, New York) and Philena Nickerson who live next door. Granger Phelps appears in the Williams household. Unable to find a Williams connetion to Sophia or Simeon.

    Sophia married Simeon Phelps, Jr on 28 May 1812 in Brutus, Cayuga, New York, USA. Simeon (son of Simeon Phelps, Sr) was born on 15 May 1781 in Canaan, Litchfield, Connecticut, USA; died on 27 Jan 1849 in Victory, Cayuga, New York, USA; was buried in Jan 1849 in Hannibal, Oswego, New York, USA.

    • Residence: 1871, Delaware, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada; Age: 51; MaritalStatus: Widowed
    • Residence: 1878, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
    • Residence: 1880, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
    • Residence: 1880, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada

    Notes:

    Lobo Twp is about 12 miles from Delaware, Ontario. On Lobo Twp voter list in 1878 and 1880. Not on census in 1881. His 2nd wife is on 1881 census as a widow.

    On the 1861 Canadian Census for Cramahe, Northumberland, Canada, his children Levi and Lucinda appeared in the household of Abert(age 54) & Abigail Porter(age 50). Also in the household children, Maurice Porter(age 25) and Porthena Porter(age 22). All were listed as born in the U.S. We have not found Willis in the 1861 census. Willis appears on the 1852 Census in Brighton, Northumberland County (without Sophronia or Levi). (Cramahe is about 11 miles from Brighton). We believe that his wife Sophronia died approximately 1861. This is probably indicative that she died prior to the 1861 census. We have not found Willis himself on the 1861 census.

    From family trees online it appears that Albert Borzer Porter was born 1805 in Hartford County, Connecticut. His wife is Abigail Pettet. I did not find any genealogical connection.

    On the 1850 census in Ira, Cayuga, New York Head of household is listed as William Phelps, wife is listed as Cephrona and Willis (must be Levi) is listed as 6 months old on 8/10/1850 (Levi's death cert shows born Feb 1850).

    There is an 1851 mortgage foreclosure sale on his real estate in Ira, found on genealogybank.com. The Cayuga Chief 11 Nov1851 P.3. Willis executed a mortgage 6 Jul 1850. The foreclosure sale is 27 Nov 1851.

    He appears on 1878 and 1880 Voter Lists in Lobo Township. But does not appear on the 1881 Census. We assume that he died prior to 1881.

    Inscription on 2nd wife's gravestone, says in 1884 "wife of late W.H. Phelps"

    Birth:
    I believe Burton, New York in Phelps book was an error. Father lived in Brutus, Burton being 150 miles away does not make sense.

    Willis married Sophronia Bradley before 1848 in New York, USA. Sophronia was born in 1822 in New York, USA; died before 1861. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Child on 1840 census as less than 5 may not have been Jennette, but an earlier child who died young. As to why her name is Wetherby and not Phelps, I do not know. Perhaps she was not Simeon's child??? or perhaps she was an orphan of one of Sophia's close relatives, thus Sophia took her in.

    Died:
    Cannot find in census aft 1870
